Video: Black Eyed Peas, The Time (Dirty Bit)

BlackBerry Playbook Product Placement FAIL

(Note they darkened the BlackBerry logo during this portion of the lyrics).

The video was uploaded to YouTube on November 2010. That means RIM paid for product placement of BlackBerry Playbook, which doesn’t exist for half a year (except for vaporware hype), while the lyrics recommends Apple.

RIM, you are so two-thousand and late! Maybe next time the RIM suits need to actually listen to the song lyrics, such as “It’s gotta be the Apple” before blindly bidding for paid music video product placement?
